Lack of Courage
The Psychological Comfort
factor
Bottom Line:Lack of Personal
commitment
Lack of Knowledge
• Define the job in terms of its three or
four nonnegotiable criteria — things
the person must be able to do to
succeed.
• Every business needs a discipline
that is embedded in the people
process, with candid dialogues about
the matches between people and
jobs.
• Follow-through that ensures people
take the appropriate actions.
Lack of Courage
• Innumerable cases of the “wrong person
being kept in the wrong job”,
• Leader lacks Emotional Fortitude
– to take decisive action
– confront the person,
– and make a change.
• If the non-performer is high enough in the
organization, he or she can be
particularly destructive.
• Leaders fail to hole people accountable
for their “Poor Performance”
The Psychological Comfort
• Jobs areFactor
filled with the wrong people
because leaders who promote them
are comfortable with them, and the
employees are loyal to those leaders.
• However, if loyalty is based on the
wrong factors (social reasons,rather
than professional, etc.), it could be
damaging.
• Breaking free of this comfort factor is
exactly what a leader must do to
bring about Change.
Lack of Personal
Commitment
• If right people are not in the right
jobs, the problem is visible and
transparent
• Leaders need to commit as much
as 40 percent of their time and
emotional energy to
– Selecting the Right People,
– Appraising the Right People,
– Developing people
• Foundation of a great company is
the way it develops people—
providing the right experiences
What Kind of People
are
you Looking for?
• One Energizing People
– Leader’s whose visions come true build and sustain their
people’s momentum.
• One who is Decisive on Tough Issues
– Ability to make difficult decisions swiftly and well, and act
on them & not dance around decisions without ever
making them.
• They get things done through others
– Don’t be a MICROMANAGER
• They Follow through
– Following through ensures that people are doing the
things they committed to do, according to the agreed
timetable.
